Online RPG Interactive Adventure Games Combined With an E-book Learning Obstetric Fetal Heart Rate Monitoring Technology

One of the main goals of nursing education is to cultivate essential clinical skills in students to ensure they can provide safe, effective, and compassionate care within a medical environment. In the field of obstetric nursing, the precise mastery of fetal heart rate monitoring is crucial as it significantly impacts the students' future ability to assess the health conditions of both the mother and the fetus in clinical settings. This becomes increasingly important in today's context of declining birth rates. However, traditional nursing education, which mainly relies on knowledge transmission and simulation demonstrations, not only struggles to stimulate students' interest but often leads to ineffective learning outcomes. With the rapid advancement of technology, these limitations no longer meet the current needs of nursing education and students. Therefore, this study proposes to build and explore a new teaching model based on the ARCS motivation theory, integrating online role-playing games (RPGs) and interactive e-books to enhance nursing students' learning motivation and effectiveness.
